Remo's popular Pinstripe heads are made from 2 plies of Remo clear film and bonded at the collar to dampen both high overtones and overall resonance. The result is a very focused, low-pitched sound with moderate attack and response characteristics that is ideal for creating a deeper, fatter, controlled drum sound in a variety of studio and live drumming situations.

Put on Pinstripes all around your kit for instantly better sound. Order today!

I bought a whole set of Pinstripes for a Yamaha Recording Custom I picked up with tom sizes 10,12,13,14,16,18.I normally don't do Remo, two ply, or premuffled heads (personal preference), but Pinstripes seem like standard fair on these drums, so I thought I'd give them a go.I was pleasantly surprised at the sound.They have a nice attack, decent sustain, and will probably last forever.I highly recommend them for floor toms. They may be a bit too muffled for smaller toms.

When I first got these i was so excited that i would finally have name brand heads. The stock heads i had were in tune but just rang too much because they were single ply. I slapped these babies on tuned them for about an hour and they sounded awesome. They gave me a deep fat sound that i had craved after. Then about 2 weeks past and they were dead. I was so disappointed i thought they should at least lasted a month,but i guess not. I have recently bought remo coated emperors and they are awesome much better than pinstripes and last longer. So if your going to buy pins just take in consideration they don't last very long.

I installed them on my Pearl Rhythm Traveler kit which has 10, 12 and 14" concert toms (no bottom head). They improved the sound a lot, just the right amount of ring. They might be too heavy if you have traditional bottom heads.

I bought the 12 and 14 inch version of these heads months ago and they are still holding up with only stick marks from [obviously] playing them. I haven't had to tune either of the heads since I put them on when they first arrived. The durability is amazing and they keep tone excellently...not to even mention that they were very easy to tune up.

Pinstripes can make any tom sound great, especially when paired with ambassadors as resos. I tune mine to a medium tightness and my resos just above wrinkle to get the tone and rebound that I want, and my toms sound great.

Good for toms tuned low, 12"-18". A little too thick for 8" & 10" toms though, as they effect the feel of ghost notes on them. Great for giving a 14" floor tom some low end. They're Durable. The coated & ebony ones sound a lot better in my opinion.

There is one setting. One dynamic. Hit it.no glancing blows need apply.Use a heavy stick to fullyachieve maximum tone.These heads are not the greatest for jazz chops. They havea bright attack and natural decay when tuned properly butyou have to pound them a bit to get the desired tone.I decided to simply use another drum kit with coated mediums for lighter playing styles and save the pin stripes for the rock gigs.

A couple of yeas ago I changed from a metal to a wood snare. I haven't used this head for years and thought I was getting good sound from another type of head. I can hear clearly now!!!! This is bright, clean, clear, pearcing but not overwhelming. The natural bounce of the stick is almost unreal at a similar head tension. I am very impressed to be reminded of what I had forgot about this head. I have heard in practice recordings of the same song with the old head and the new head, a beautiful bright sound that on playback fells so good....
